    Hey Sports Fans,

    Is anyone interested in doing a bit of sports journalism nad not have to get up off your chair? I am setting up a sports site ASAP and we on the lookout for some stories

    Stories have to be

    1. Completely made up
    2. Approx 200-250 words
    3. Written in a sports tabloid fashion
    4. The more surreal the better
    5. Have a global appeal (GAA stories wont really have an interest for people in Hong Kong)
    6. Humour is obviously important

    Any wacky/ wierd stuff PLEASE email or post up on this thread


    Thanks

    Peace y'all

    Man o' the moon






    Example


    Sampras to miss Wimbledon

    14 time major winner 'Pistol' Pete Sampras is to have emergency surgery and may be out up to 4 months. This will mean that he will miss the wimbledon Championships.

    Dr. Micheal Yachtur of the Sonny Bono Mediacal Centre, Chicago in a press release announced that "Mr. Sampras suffers from a condition called gorillas hairous. This is a hereditary condition which means that Mr. Sampras has too much hair on his body"

    The condition is non-life threatening and it had been kept under control using medication. The medical team have decided to carry out the operation sooner rather than later. We expect Mr. Sampras to return to competitive tennis in October/ November.

    Dr. Yachtur added "while the operation wont effect Mr. Sampras physically his skin will take time to aclimatise to the sun again. Some parts of his body have not been exposed to the sun in over 20 years"

    I'm really sorry Neuro praxis, I didnt realise you were hairy. I am so thoughtless. How could i have been so careless. I only meant it as a joke?



    Do you suffer from the same condition as sampras?


    Whats it like ?

    So much hair and so little skin
    Poor Monkey boy. I didnt mean to offend. All those years in school, when nobody would sit beside you. Shaving your palms everyday to no effect.

    It just kept growing eh?

    Binge eating on Bananas.

    I wont post again. I'm sorry hairy choke

    Goodbye great follicle
